Considering replacing a 40+ indoor oil tank preventatively with an
outdoor Roth dw tank. Roth height is an issue for current indoor location.
Currently no leaks - wanted opinions on condition of under tank pictures.
see links.
Thanks,

Roth does make a tank that is 54 inches high. Your tank does look questionable but, it might just be paint coming off.
Kinda hard to tell with the pictures and not being there.0 -
40 years? Definitely time for a replacement.0

Advice 1 get a licensed company to do it.Dont tackle it by yourself it can turn into a big mess.Company will come cut tank suck out oil squegee tank and clean it then cut it up and remove if necessary.You also get paperwork.0
